I currently have everything on my regular XL. When I get the MM special eiditon (digital download of the game). Will I have to bring everything to the 4gb micro in the New 3DS XL so that I have MM downloaded there, and then transfer the whole lot to my new 16gb micro sd?

At the time I had a 4GB card to a 4GB card, so I went into the settings on the 3DS, hit System transfer and that walks you through it. I left the two machines plugged in (or with enough battery) and on for about 2 hours or however long it took. When I came back all my original information was on my 3DSXL. I then went into the Nintendo Store, and under "Previous Downloads" was the game.

To then move everything over to the 16GB card, I just used my computer to drag all the files onto my desktop, stick in the 16GB card and drag it all onto that and then put that one into the console.

I think reddit has a link on transferring.

Any idea where I can preorder the Majora New 3DS XL bundle?

Thanks for the descriptions, appreciate it!

My delivery to the PM has been cancelled.

For the MM special?

Star Lord

Yup.

We are sorry to inform you that we have been unable to despatch your order. The reason for this is as per our delivery policy, we are unable to deliver orders to any mail forwarding, freight forwarding or PO Box addresses.

As a result of this we have now cancelled your order and any payments debited from your account will be reflected on your bank statement/PayPal account within 5 working days.

I've logged in to ask about it.

[edit]
And just ordered from Amazon.fr as well. No Skull Kid statue though.

Balls, does that mean my MM game with badge and stuff will be cancelled too? Getting it with PM too.

Sold out there too.

Parcel Motel delivery from Nintendo seems to be hit and miss. Some get their stuff, others get cancelled. I got unlucky.

That link of mine is still showing up as orderable, the prior link just said it was sold out. Mine is ordered, and estimated delivery date of around launch day.

Just ordered from Star Lord's link......Thanks!

Hopefully the game is in English

I have a snes link to the past cart I've never played because it's in French!

So Smyths have the New 3DS console up on their websites available for preorder. Prices are €194.99 for the regular and €229.99 for the XL. Always nice to be ripped off in Ireland.

The box has the PEGI logo and the USK logo. Nintendo do that for all their special editions so they can ship the same thing to all countries in Europe, hence the game will have multiple languages.

That's pretty much the going price everywhere.

In Ireland? It's €194.99 on Amazon.fr (for the XL), even accounting for VAT differences that's a €30 difference in price.

Gamestop have the New 3DS XL up
http://www.gamestop.ie/Nintendo%203DS/Games/49850/new-nintendo-3ds-xl-console-metallic-blue

Expensive no at €239.99 ?

CiDeRmAn

New 3DS with shipping €174.99, some €20 less than Smyth's.
Trying to decide if it's worth the €20 to have it on launch day.
My mind is strong but my heart is weak!

In the UK, it's £149.99/€196.68 and £179.99/€236.01

For £194.99/€255.64, I'm very tempted by this:



The MMXL is ugly as inside. The N3DS has those beautiful famicon buttons! Then there's these lovely plates coming up in the future...







Now... white or black??

Getting it shipped here from the Nintendo store is the hard part. My MM N3DSXL order was cancelled by them because I was shipping to Parcel Motel.

Oh, I shipped a 3DSXL via PM from the UK store in December no problem.

I'm in the UK.

The normal sized one is a lot nicer looking than the XL and I've got tiny hands so the size doesn't bother me.

I ordered the Special edition game but the only thing I worry about is that I paid with my Irish credit card. Hopefully it'll be fine!
